Public toilets in a popular seaside town have been closed after they were vandalised.

The toilets at Jubilee North on the seafront at Lowestoft were targeted on Wednesday night.

East Suffolk Council described the damage as "significant" and added: "The repairs may take some time and the toilets will remain closed until these repairs are complete."

They described it as a "mindless attack" and said the incident had been reported to police.
